Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Independence Oilfield Chemicals, LLC and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013, and the results of their operations, changes in their member’s interest and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

INDEPENDENCE OILFIELD CHEMICALS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Independence Oilfield Chemicals (“IOC”) was formed on May 8, 2012 as a Delaware limited liability company. IOC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of IOC Holdings, LLC (“Holdings” or the “Member”), which was organized for the sole purpose of purchasing and holding investments in IOC.
IOC is a company that engages in the distribution of chemical solutions used in the oil and natural gas drilling and stimulation process, primarily in Texas and North Dakota.
2. | Summary of significant accounting policies |
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
These consolidated financial statements were approved by management and available for issuance on March 20, 2014. Subsequent events have been evaluated through this date.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IOC and its wholly-owned subsidiary IOC Atascoa FM 536 LLC (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation (impairment) consideration of long-lived assets, accounts receivable, and inventory and the useful lives of the machinery and equipment.
Cash equivalents and bank overdrafts
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no such cash equivalents. Bank overdrafts consist of outstanding checks not yet presented to a bank for settlement, net of cash held in accounts with right of offset.
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable values. When required, the Company maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments and for anticipated returns. The allowance is based on specific facts and circumstances surrounding individual customers as well as historical experience. Provisions for losses on receivables and returns are charged to income to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover losses and future returns. Receivables are charged off against the reserve when they are deemed uncollectible and returns are charged off against the reserve when the actual returns are incurred. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no such allowance.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) |
Inventories
Inventory is comprised of raw materials and finished goods and is recorded on the first in first out basis and are stated at the lower of average cost or market. When required, a provision is made to reduce excess or obsolete inventory to their net realizable value when needed. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no such allowance.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at acquisition cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method, which the Company believes is adequate to allocate the cost of the property and equipment over their estimated useful lives.
The useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:
| | |
Asset | | Estimated Useful Life |
| |
Vehicles | | 3 Years |
Information technology | | 5 Years |
ERP system | | 5 Years |
Leasehold improvements | | 5 Years |
Blending equipment | | 5 Years |
Laboratory equipment | | 5 Years |
Furniture and fixtures | | 7 Years |
Buildings | | 20 Years |
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For assets that are held and used, impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value. Fair values are determined based on discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisals, as applicable. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company had no such impairment charges.
Revenue recognition
The Company only recognizes revenue when it is realized and earned. The Company considers its revenue to have been earned when goods are shipped in accordance with purchase orders and verbal authorizations.
Shipping and handling costs
Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in cost of sales on the consolidated statement of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) |
Equity based compensation
The Company accounts for its equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,Compensation – Share Based Compensation. This statement requires the recognition of compensation expense measured at fair value when the Company obtains employee services in equity-based payment transactions. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company expensed approximately $56,000 related to equity-based compensation issuances, which is included in salaries and benefits within the consolidated statement of operations.
Income taxes
The Company does not record a provision for federal income taxes because the member reports its share of the Company’s income or loss on its federal income tax returns. The consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for federal income tax purposes. However, the Company is subject to Texas margin tax, which approximated $100,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.
In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. De-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized results in the Company recording a tax liability that reduces member’s equity. This policy has been applied to all existing tax positions since the Company’s inception. Based on its analysis, the Company has determined that the adoption of this policy did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption. However, the Company’s conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties in income tax fees payable, if assessed. No interest expense or penalties have been recognized as of December 31, 2013 or for the year then ended.
The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and may file income tax returns in various U.S. states. Generally, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since Company inception.
The Company may be subject to potential examination by U.S. federal, U.S. states or foreign jurisdiction authorities in the areas of income taxes. These potential examinations may include questioning the timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal, U.S. state and foreign tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.

The Company sells its accounts receivable balances at 80% of gross value and receives a rebate of 20% on the gross value if the underlying receivable balance is paid within 90 days or a 17% rebate if paid between 90 and 120 days.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Independence Oilfield Chemicals, LLC and subsidiary as of December 31, 2012, and the results of its operations, changes in its member’s interest and its cash flows for the period from May 8, 2012 (Inception) through December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Nature of operations and liquidity |
Independence Oilfield Chemicals (“IOC”) was formed on May 8, 2012 (Inception) as a Delaware limited liability company. IOC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of IOC Holdings, LLC (“Holdings” or the “Member”), which was organized for the sole purpose of purchasing and holding investments in IOC.
IOC is a 2012 startup company that engages in the distribution of chemical solutions used in the oil and natural gas drilling and stimulation process, primarily in the Eagle Ford Shale. During the period from Inception through December 31, 2012, substantially all of IOC’s efforts were devoted to developing its business plan with product sales beginning on August 20, 2012.
2. | Summary of significant accounting policies |
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
These consolidated financial statements were approved by management and available for issuance on February 15, 2013. Subsequent events have been evaluated through this date.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of IOC and its wholly-owned subsidiary IOC Atascoa FM 536 LLC (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation (impairment) consideration of long-lived assets, accounts receivable, and inventory and the useful lives of the machinery and equipment.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no such cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable values. When required, the Company maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments and for anticipated returns. The allowance is based on specific facts and circumstances surrounding individual customers as well as historical experience. Provisions for losses on receivables and returns are charged to income to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover losses and future returns. Receivables are charged off against the reserve when they are deemed uncollectible and returns are charged off against the reserve when the actual returns are incurred. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no such allowance.

2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) |
Inventories
Inventory is comprised of raw materials and finished goods and is recorded on the first in first out basis and are stated at the lower of average cost or market. When required, a provision is made to reduce excess or obsolete inventory to their net realizable value when needed. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no such allowance.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at acquisition cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method, which the Company believes is adequate to allocate the cost of the property and equipment over their estimated useful lives.
The useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:
| | |
Asset | | Estimated Useful Life |
| |
Information technology | | 5 Years |
ERP system | | 5 Years |
Furniture and fixtures | | 7 Years |
Blending equipment | | 20 Years |
Laboratory equipment | | 20 Years |
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For assets that are held and used, impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value. Fair values are determined based on discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisals, as applicable. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. For the period from May 8, 2012 (Inception) through December 31, 2012, the Company had no such impairment charges.
Revenue Recognition
The Company ships and invoices its sales in accordance with signed purchase orders. The Company only recognizes revenue when it is realized and earned. The Company considers its revenue to have been earned when goods are shipped in accordance with signed purchase orders.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,Compensation – Share Based Compensation. This statement requires the recognition of compensation expense measured at fair value when the Company obtains employee services in stock-based payment transactions. For the period from May 8, 2012 (Inception) through December 31, 2012, the Company expensed approximately $35,000 related to stock-based compensation issuances, which is included in salaries and benefits within the consolidated statement of operations.

Income taxes
The Company does not record a provision for federal income taxes because the member reports its share of the Company’s income or loss on its federal income tax returns. The consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for federal income tax purposes. However, the Company is subject to Texas margin tax, which approximated $16,000 for the period from May 8, 2012 (Inception) through December 31, 2012.
In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and may file income tax returns in various U.S. state and local jurisdictions. Generally, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. The tax benefit recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. De-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized results in the Company recording a tax liability that reduces net assets. This policy has been applied to all existing tax positions since the Company’s inception. Based on its analysis, the Company has determined that the adoption of this policy did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption. However, the Company’s conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties in income tax fees payable, if assessed. No interest expense or penalties have been recognized as of December 31, 2012 or for the period from May 8, 2012 (Inception) through December 31, 2012.
Inventories consist of the following as of December 31, 2012:
